What is a microswitch?
A microswitch is a small size and very sensitive electrical device. Requires minimal compression to activate. These are widely used in home appliances, small button switch panels, etc. They are available cheaply and work for a long time. As they are sensitive and small in size, they are used to detect open-close doors, preventing them from being damaged. Therefore, they are used as safety devices. Manufacturers in China are famous for making these sensitive microswitch devices.
Variety of sizes and shapes
Microswitch sizes range from small, ultra-small, super-small, mini, etc. in dimensions. The typical size found is small and very small. Manufacturers from China offer various sizes and shapes.
Uses of a microswitch
Microswitches are used to turn a machine on or off. They are used to detect the status of a door, whether it is open or closed. They are used on the buttons on the control panel. They can also detect the water level in kitchens and ovens. They can also check if the door panels are open or closed. These are low-cost devices with a high, durable and low-maintenance nature. Some of them are also water and dust resistant. Therefore, they offer greater protection against dust and water. This feature makes them work efficiently, even with exposure to dust and water. China manufacturers provide very efficient and quality devices.
Types of microswitches
There are several types of microswitches available. China microswitch manufactures the following switches, such as toggle, Omron, micro button switch, cherry, micro on / off switch, micro limit switch, push button, subminiature sealed, subminiature waterproof, long travel sealed, mini, Subminiature, Subminiature Coil Spring, Subminiature Waterproof Coil Spring, Miniature Dustproof, Miniature, Miniature Waterproof, Basic, Waterproof Microswitch, DPDT 1NO 1NC Micro.
Various applications
They are mainly used in electronic and electrical equipment, instrumentation, power systems, mining, home appliances, aviation, aerospace, ships, missiles, tanks, and other military areas. As already mentioned, the microswitches are waterproof, dustproof and explosion proof. There are single, double and multiple types.
The microswitches have very modest buttons. They have an irreplaceable quality of operation. These miniature and microswitches are used in automatic control and safety protection devices as they often require switching circuits. They find use in electronics, instrumentation, mining, electricity, aerospace and aviation, ships, missiles, electrical systems, household appliances, etc. These are widely used in the aforementioned fields. They work with little contact space and a fast-acting mechanism. The tactile mechanism in them performs the action of change. Everything in them works meticulously and correctly.
